What these specs mean
- Core material
- Polypropylene honeycomb is the most widely used core. The plastic cells absorb impact, giving a quiet, soft and forgiving feel that suits control and touch.
- Face
- Fiberglass faces flex more than carbon, which usually adds pop and power at the cost of some control.
These are typical tendencies of each construction. Weight, balance, surface treatment and each brand's specific materials also change how a paddle plays.
How it compares
- Polypropylene honeycomb cores: 2,595 of the 3,428 approved paddles with a listed core material (76%).
